supported by john digweed, pawas, jeff samuel, adam kroll, dubnitzky, monoroom, h.o.s.h., mollono.bass, elektrodrei, jakob seidensticker&lexgold !! and again the ostwind-crew presents new artists on their limited series. on the a-side we have the up comming artists daniel solar (known from his excellent remix-work for marc depulse s “kein kind von traurigkeit” on ostwind013) with his production partner marc poppcke aka solar & poppcke. they deliver a stunnig melancholic journey between electrofied techhouse and neo-trance with some neo-pop influences. on the b-side we welcome roberto rodriguez, known from his projects “future beat investigators”, “bermuda” or “track n field” for labels like laka, raw fusion, sonar kollektiv, frisbee tracks and nine2five to name a few. he comes with a great soulful detroit influenced melodic techhouse biggie to save special moments on the dancefloor. all in all a very nice package with two sentimentally ear candys in a very high production quality !!

after arkus p 1st own release on his very own label arcus sinus, his signs east-germany based artist fl-x for the 2nd one. frowning and athmospheric sounds rule over this classy 4-tracker. fl-x is also in the pipeline for releases on viper xxls animasola. definitely one of the future’s hottest artists in harder genres.

hyperdub kick off 2008 they way they intend to proceed, with new tracks from a new artist. on her debut release, ikonika comes with her own very unique, warped yet soulful bleep sound. with shape shifting beats that switch styles every few bars its hard to pin these two tracks down... cos if it was easy, it just wouldnt be hyperdub. both tunes are one minute minimal, one minute maximal, driven along by ikonikas special combination of wonky synth and deep swingin sub bass melodies that place them somewhere between an early, blocky grime instrumental and the sweeter side of detroit techno ? except with better bass of course! who needs a vocalist when your synth can sing like this? quite how kode9 manages to keep unveiling new producers of such abundant talent is a conun drum, but one to be cracked some other time when we?re not so busy keeping up with his astonishing labels ceaseless march into the future.

a very special compost release with two very rare tracks! the a-side features a great remix of beanfields >tides< with amazing vocals from bajka - of course its not quite up there with the unbelievable carl craig mix but then that would be an uphill struggle. ripperton from the lazy fat people adds his moody, deep slant to the track, less anthemic than carl craig but a more than welcome alternative. this mix was available for a short time as bootleg with ricardo villaloboss remix of depeche modes >sinner in me< on the flip and sold out quickly despite the poor sound quality. finally, one year later, this great tune sees it official release completely remasterd in chrystal clear sound - get it, play it, love it! in 2006 the duo tom wieland and marc frank - better known as 7 samurai - crafted a fine remix of invisible sessions under their panoptikum moniker. when michael reinboth considered this remix for his new future sounds of jazz compilation the guys decided to contribute even a little bit more: an excusive new version which became a definitely highlight of the whole compilation. the panoptikum 2007 remix surprisingly takes a leaf out of innervisions book for a smooth deep houser with a slighty techy sound and a touch of detroit in the vein of Âme or henrik schwarz. in contrast to the vocal version included on fsoj this 12inch features the trippy instrumental version. ace stuff! two must have tracks - all killer, no filler!

excellent deep space media compilation!! an adventure into future dub, spacey vibes and abstract grooves..

cazals release their first full single life is boring from their brilliant upcoming album what of our future. you may have seen and heard this bruising and frenetic track on the recent sony ericsson walkman campaign, which featured the video directed by bryan barber of outkast fame. life is boring features remixes all from friends of the band. one from ali love who was a founding member of cazals, and played bass! another from rory phillips who daniel and phil know only too well after spending practically every monday night with him for the last number of years at trash and finally a remix from crookers who are lucas favourite italian producer mates.

this isnt just another disco record, this isnt just another bunch of tired re edits. what you have in your possession is the collaboration of a worldwide band of dedicated music lovers. the product of many early mornings and late nights, emails, files and myspace communications floating around the world wide web from chin stroking scientists in the us, uk across the european continent and as far east as japan and australia. possibly the first ever co operative dance music project to come from this fast paced future we find ourselves in. a joint venture that makes the world feel a whole lot smaller – history in the making. to be played very loud in discos!!!

new bomb from west london don phil asher..... phash continues his raw fusion escapades with this recycled and well improved reggae groove made in a true restless soul spirit. together with uk singer shea soul and mc motet of the bugz crew, phil rocks the joints on this original brentford all stars sample and reboots it into the future of cyberspace. with nice punch bits like baby girl, im looking at the front door, motet slices it up and gives room for shea soul as she melts our hearts with her smooth vocal chords. and dubbed out of his mind, phil keeps going for an instrumental dub version where it (by way of the tape delay inferno) gets the true king tubby treatment.

the original mix of tape replay is nearly nine minutes long and can only be described as a journey. its the perfect transition track, able to turn minimal sets into future disco, a house set into electro-funk, a techno set into a live jam-a-thon or a rigid set of any kind (like too many these days) into something with emotional depth. for remix duties we have enlisted our favorite producers will saul & tam cooper from simple records. much like their tech-house revision of phoniques bang, recently released on dessous, here on fresh meat they have put together a subtle yet bassy response to the wow & flutter original. the track builds and builds and at about three fourths through it explodes with lush keys, rich pads and a breakdown thats executed perfectly. these gents are on point and we are more than excited to have them along for the trip.

saint martinique, one of the label honchos, delievers with the >contrast ep< his solo debut on the label. the original version with its minimalistic energy and an unforgetable arrangement of melodies seems like a future catchy tune. studio colloborator stereofunk takes the sound of the mid-nineties back to us. his maginificant tech-electro rework would undoubtly play havoc with the clubs.

a little less than two and a half years after its conception—and close to 30 singles, one compilation, one mix cd and one sublabel later—berlins mobilee releases its first artist album. naturally, who better to represent the milestone than pan-pot, who so far have delivered five essential singles to mobilee, helping to anchor the ever-shifting sound of one of europes most exciting labels. in just two short years, with 10 singles (for mobilee and einmaleins musik) and lots of remixes, theyve become known far and wide for their distinctive, groovy, and above all ominous sound. pan-o-rama finds the boys stretching that sound in every possible direction: twisting, tearing, and using the shreds to drag a wide swath of techno history into the future (and, just maybe, to drag a few pieces of techno future back into the past). call it minimal if you must, but this aint no clickity-clack shit. you can hear the agonized gurgle of isolationist acid, reminiscent of plastikmans darkest nights. you can hear the percolating urgency of classic bleep techno. tried and true hardware collides with restless digital experimentation as dance musics dna worms its way into twisted new shapes. pan-o-rama is dark, thats for damned sure. eerie vocals that seem to come from within the listeners own head creep across the stereo field. throughout, restrained minor-key melodies conjure 21st century noir, and a relentless low-end rumble seems to suck up all the light around it

real soon is proud to present the debut release by berlin-based producer hauke freer. hauke has an old-school production approach, working with contemporary software but using a palette of mainly vinyl samples to give a loose, effortless, raw-sounding edge. my beat is a dirty, gritty, house work-out featuring deep, filtered chords, lo-fi percussion and roughly chopped vocal pieces. old-fashioned in a good way - just the way we like it! we must face our fears is a smoother, minimal track with a delicate, beautifully measured mesh of percussive knocks, slides & bleeps driven by a pulsing sine wave bass. as the track builds, a classic detroit-flavoured chord wash brings it all together. bliss... biography hauke freer grew up in a small town near hamburg and moved to berlin in 2000 to work for the techno label kanzleramt. after spending a year in australia djing and working for the label future classic, hauke returned to berlin to work for the resopal schallware label

second octopus is mr statik with an excellent 3 channels remix, stathis is a greek gentleman of some refinement, his tracks caught our ear on mathias schaffhausers ware imprint as part of the mudmax duo and his talent for combining careful modern production and late night hysteria drew us to him as a future roster artist. then we come to 3 channels,what can we say,they have blown up on crosstown rebels and trapez and their own imprint channel records, their dj sets kick ass all over the place and their remixes, from claude vonstroke to decryptor have proved them as the bright stars of the european house movement. this mix is inspired,relentless, unusually energetic and yet typically 3 channels, aimed straight into the heat and haze of the night
